Humble Pie.

To ''eat humble pie" is to knock under, TO
be submissive. This expression arose from
the fact that the un6les, or entrails, and other
unprime parts Of a deer, were anciently made
into dish for servants, while their masters
feasted off the haunch. DR.. Brewer says of
this expression: "'To eat humble pie is to
come down from position You have assum-
ed, to be Obliged to take a lower room
'Umbes' are the heart, liver and enlrails of
the deer, the huntsmans perquisites. When
the lord and his household dined the venison
pastry was served ON the dais, but the umbles
were made into pie for the huntsman and
his fellows. N. B.-Pie and patty were both
diminutives of pastry. Pastry and patty are
limited TO vension, veal and some few other
meats; pie is of far wider significance, inClud.

Embarrassing Divination by PaImistry

Embarrassing Divination by PaImistry.
The present rage for palmistry recalls an
incident which occurred half a dozen years
since at Bar Harbor. There were staying
at one Of the hotels pretty young widow
from Baltimore who was versed in the Sc
crets of chiromancy, and a young Kentuck-
ian who was par excellence the lion of the
season. The widow for some reason or
other had taken a whimsical dislike to the
popular southerner and hardly acznowl
edged an acquaintance with him; yet he
one day ventured 10 ask her to read his
hand, as she had already deciphered the
palms Of half the people in the house. The
lady at first demurred, bat at length think
ng as she afterward explained, that it was
simpler to do as she was asked than to con
test the point, she requested the gentleman
to show her his hand He did so, and with
an Involuntary start of surprise, and a
frankness which was evidently genuine, she
exclaimed
Why it is the hand of thiefI'
As the interview took place upon the
plaza in the presence of a group of board
erS, the situation of the young man was a
sufficiently awkward one, but he did not
finch. As the lady checked herself in evil
dent confusion, he responded with the most
perfect tact and self control:
All! Thank you. That suggests to me
means of making my way in the world that
had never occurred to me; and since the
war we southerners have to be on the look
out for opportunities. -
His ready wit saved the situation, and he
was more popular than ever; but the inter
est of the tale is that two or three days
after he was discovered stealing the dia-
monds of a wealthy dowager, and although
the matter was hushed up as much as posi-
bic for the sake of the hotel and the people
who had introduced the Kentuckian, it
somehow leaked out that the rogue was an
old offender and a thief long known to the
police Of New York and Philadelphia. -Bos-
